Product Details

Our luxuriously soft beach towels are made from brushed microfiber with a 100% cotton back for extra absorption.   The top of the towel has the image printed on it, and the back is white cotton.   Our beach towels are available in two different sizes: beach towel (32" x 64") and beach sheet (37" x 74").

Don't let the fancy name confuse you... a beach sheet is just a large beach towel.

Artist's Description

0130 on 17 May 1943: Cooler 6 begins attack. Flt Lt Dave Shannon (RAAF) flying Lancaster Type 464 ED929/G, AJ-L (nicknamed "L for Leather"), makes the first run at the undefended Eder Dam during 617 Squadron's Operation Chastise, watched by mission leader Wing Cdr Guy Gibson in AJ-G. The downward-pointing Aldis lamps, offset to the right, were to gauge the 60ft approach height. The valley contours make it extremely difficult to attain the tight release parameters so bomb aimer Flt Sgt Len Sumpter does not yet drop the Upkeep revolving depth charge ("bouncing bomb").

Dam reconstructed from a photo by Stephen Thomas and aircraft are extensive reworkings of photos by Ronnie Macdonald and Tony Hisgett (all with permission).
